Conduit-based Nerve Repairs Provide Greater Resistance to Tension Compared with Primary Repairs: A Biomechanical Analysis on Large Animal Samples

BACKGROUND: When primary repair of transected peripheral nerves is not possible due to large gaps, nerve grafts or repair using conduits are other options to bridge the gap such that the nerve is repaired without tension. When nerve gaps are repaired primarily, there is a worry about tension, failur...
